When it comes to VR porn content, passthrough AR porn scenes are quickly becoming the best option on the market. While traditional porn is still very enjoyable with a VR headset, putting the world's most beautiful models into your own surroundings using passthrough takes these scenes to the next level. 

Passthrough AR porn works on the Meta Quest 3 and the Pico 4. It is compatible with the Quest 2 and Valve Index, although it is monoscopic black and white. Passthrough is not yet compatible with Oculus Link to PCVR or the VIVE XR Elite headset. 

So if you’re looking for the best passthrough AR porn experience, which headset works best? Let’s break down our top picks to use with state-of-the-art passthrough scenes like Just Fooling Around featuring Ashley Alexander. This scene was filmed using a full-body chroma suit, which removes the male talent, allowing you to position your body in place so it feels just like you're right there having sex with Ashley!

While conventional Passthrough is still amazing and getting better all the time, we've made huge technological breakthroughs in AI Passthrough as well by removing backgrounds and male performers using AI.  Scenes won't need to be shot in chromakey, but still deliver amazing immersive results. We already have over a thousand videos with AI passthrough. The list keeps growing and the AI system continues to get better with each iteration. See it for yourself! And don't forget about all the exciting passthrough-hack videos we have! Want to experience all this but don't have a VR headset? Don't worry, you can still enjoy Passthrough porn on your phone!

Right now is an exciting time for VR enthusiasts so let's look at current VR headsets and discuss what makes them so viable for passthrough AR porn. 

Meta Quest

As we’ve covered in the past, the Meta Quest 2 is one of the best all-around VR headsets, thanks to its ease of use, affordability, and high-resolution imaging. However, when it comes to passthrough porn, it’s just okay because it shows your environment in black and white. So, as you set up the scene, there’s some inconsistency as the model is in color while the background isn’t. While it’s a good introduction to passthrough, there are better headsets within the Meta Quest family. The Quest Pro is also a good option. It's a step up from the Quest 2, but has already been surpassed in terms of value by the latest from Meta: The Quest 3.

The Meta Quest 3 is your best option.

Meta Quest 3

The Quest 3 is easily the best current choice for watching VR porn, because it offers the best experience across the most watching options for the best price, by far. The Quest 3 can do what any other current headset can do, and usually do it better. Read more in our Quest 3 blog for all the reasons why it's the only headset we officially reccomend at this time. 

Pico 4

Although Pico released a new headset in 2023 (the G3), it’s designed for business use and doesn’t offer the same visual capabilities as the Pico 4. So, for now, those who like Pico headsets should stick to the 4 to get their passthrough fix. 

When looking at a side-by-side comparison, the Pico 4 and the Meta Quest Pro look pretty similar, although the Pico 4 is definitely sharper. When you’re wearing the headsets, the difference is a bit more noticeable, so if you’re looking to buy a headset specifically for passthrough, the Pico 4 might be a better option.

Vive XR Elite

SLR and DeoVR app don’t fully support passthrough AR porn on this headset, so you won’t be able to watch your favorite scenes. However, since we’re just looking at the best headsets for passthrough imaging, we wanted to share that it is possible on the Vive XR Elite. 

That said, while the Vive offers color imaging, the clarity and sharpness of the picture is not at the same level as the Quest Pro or Pico 4. Overall, if you’re looking for something decent for VR porn, the Vive XR won’t be a good investment. 

Apple Vision Pro

The Apple Vision Pro is truly a remarkable piece of kit. However, in true Apple form, the system has made it incredibly difficult to use for adult content and passthrough video compatibility. Don't worry: It's possible to watch VR porn on the Vision Pro using the Safari browser. But having a seamless experience with it is still a few steps away. We're working on making that better right now. So if you own the Vision Pro, be sure to check our updates about it in our Apple Vision Pro blog. 

That said, given the price tag and the fact that you need to carry a battery, you may not want to buy a Vision Pro just for passthrough scenes. If you’re already looking to get a Vision Pro or already own one for its other features, we’re confident that it could be one of the best headsets for Passthrough porn in the long run. 

The Bottom Line

Passthrough AR porn is really a game-changer as it almost completely blurs the line between virtual and reality. As more scenes are developed for passthrough specifically, users will be able to have sex with their favorite models more intimately than ever before. We’re also excited because new advancements like haptic feedback toys and hand tracking can deliver the best virtual porn experience possible.
